The Tableau Community 2014 Year in Review

2014 was a good year for the Tableau Community. Our membership more than doubled, but that didn’t stop the Community from feeling like…well, feeling like a strong community. It was a year of welcoming and connecting with other members, celebrating achievements, and sharing knowledge. As the Community Strategist, I get to see first hand these relationships being strengthened and formed each day as part of my job.

I think it is fitting that the most talked about thread of the year (in terms of number of replies) was started by Shawn Wallwork with the Quiz: Most often asked… The post and the subsequent replies show the passion for wanting to help new users get their answers and keeping the sense of community alive and thriving. There are responses from people who have been participating in the Tableau forums for years and newbies who had only recently joined.

The thread also brought up some tougher questions – specifically around how Ideas are incorporated into Tableau products. I was determined to get more information about the Tableau Development and Idea Selection Process. I wanted to share just how much Tableau, as a company, really does listen and value the community. At the same time, it was important to demonstrate to the Development team how important communication back to the Community really is. This has started an internal conversation that will result with 2015 being a year to improve this feedback loop.

In September, Tableau Conference took place in Seattle. A number of Community members met up and connected at Community Alley. Hopefully, next year, we'll get even more people in the pic!

After conference, the Crow’s Nest challenge began. The goal? To give at least one response to every post created for a week. And WOW! Not only was the Crow’s Nest cleared out during the last week in September, but also the following 10 weeks. Talk about pulling together!

2014 was also a great year for recognizing all kinds of achievements. The recognition and honors started when Matthew Lutton was the first Tableau Community member to achieve the Question Slayer badge (aka 50 of his responses were marked as correct). Shawn Wallwork called him out in a post recognizing the achievement. But it didn’t end there. In June, Matthew unlocked the Answer Wizard badge (100 Correct Answers) – again, he got a shout out. I think this really inspired people. More and more people started attaining different badges, and Johan Sivertsen started documenting and recognizing these accomplishments in the Correct Answer Club.

I could go on and on, showing different examples of people helping people in the Tableau Community. This list is by no means comprehensive -- and contains just a couple of highlights. I am so lucky to be a part of this community and am looking forward to see what 2015 has in store! There's bound to be more members to welcome, new Tableau versions to discuss and provide ideas for, and plenty more opportunities to connect and share with others.

With effective positive and fair steps we are able to track our development; these terms are also applicable in the development of organization and communities. In most of the community we have found new faces and new changes that helps to bring better success for the organization; here also we have found that how in Tableau Community memberships are almost doubled in the last New Year and I hope every year this success trend will be continue for the suitable development.
